DEADLY TIRED Pierre LaFond Wearies of Life. A Dose of Morphine Of-. fers Relief. All That Is Known Here of the Dead Professor. Despondency Caused by Poverty Believed to Have Been the Motive for Suicide. Prof. Pierre L. LaFond, a French-Canadian and a music teacher, cut loose yesterday afternoon from the per-plexitiea which . he found gathering about him. It was done easily and quickly. A dose of morphine solved the problem which had been worrying the professor for days and at 7 o'clock last night no living man or woman in Phoenix waa so free from care aa he. He died a suicide. The professor betrayed evidences of despondency yesterday morning and later in the day his mental condition was intensified by alcoholic stimulants. Soon after noon he told his most and perhaps most intimate friend in the city that he would be dead before nightfall. He exhibited a package containing a white powder which he said he would take and which would make him as though he had never been. The professor occupied a small building on the northwest corner of Washington street and Fifth avenue. The front part of it waa used as a music room, in the rear and northwest corner he lived ate and slept. Immediately north of thia building was the house of bis friend, Mr. Bishop, who remained with him constantly after the professor showed him the powder which he said he was going to take. LaFond begged him to leave him and twice ran into hn house, closed the door against his friend, tried to lock it but the other forced his way in and tried to take the poison from him. About 4 o'clock, after an unsuccessful struggle to get poseB-sion of the powder and seeing that La-Fond was approaching the execution of his threat ran out to call help. When Bishop returned he saw traces of the deadly powder on the professor's lips and moustache and knew that his brief absence had given the opportunity. He ran to the residence of W. H. Smith across the street and said that Prof. La Fond had taken poison. Mr. Smith telephoned for Dr. Dameron, who arrived five minutes Jater or within fifteen minutes after the drug had been swallowed.All the remedies usually employed In cases' of morphine poisoning were practiced, but the patient sank constantly Throu gh and lower.. A powerful galvanic bat' tery quickened the muscles of thedy ing man. into a horrible counterfeit of natural motion, but at last even the battery failed and the last sign of any motion that suggested a spark of lingering life passed away soon, after aeven o'clock. The doctor packed his appliances and remedies away preparatory to leaving and the coroner succeeded bim. Justice Johnstone impaneled a jury made up of the following persons: W. Nichols, A. Barry, F. L. Warner, C. C. McQuinn, A. S. Mills, Jack Guinnell, John Cocker, E. Brown and John Doe. A formal view was taken of the body and it was turned over to Undertaker Smith to be prepared for burial and the inquest was set for 9 o'clock this morning.The suicide was about thirty-two years of age, handsome and an excellent specimen of physical manhood as he lay upon the cot last night in his small and meanly furnished room. He came to Phoenix about five months ago as a teacher of music and a dealer in a small way in musical instruments in which business he has a partner in Denver. Trade bad been dull and pupils few, so that it is not supposed that he had earned even the economical living he obtained by boarding himself and this is taken without information as to any other cause, to be the motive for suicide. It is not known that be had any money when he died and the only property visible were two pianoa but whether he owned them or held then as an agent could not be ascertained. He came here from Denver and had spent the summer at the world's fair. He had been in business at Holyoke, Mass., and other cities in the east. He was a native of La Baie du Febvre, Province of Quebec, where his parenta now reside. Recorder's Notes. The fo lowing transfers of real estate were yesterday entered for record : W. A. Danes to Wm.

He Proposes the Creation of 500 Unfriendly Peers. The Amendment Is Carried to the Great Surprise of h'rlends and Foes of the Measure. By the Associated Press. London, March 13. Labouchere moved in the house of commons an amendment abolishing the- power enjoyed by persons not elected to parlia ment to prevent bills from being sub mitted to her majesty and he expressed a hope that if necessary her majesty, with the advice of her ministers, would use her power to secure the passage of this much needed reform. He suggested that this object conld easily be achievtd by creating 500 new peers, who would vote for the extinction of the house of loads. Sir Walter Harcourt said he could not understand the process by which Mr. Labouchere reckoned to achieve hia object. Labouchere aaid he had a liat of 600 stalwarts who were pledged to vote for the abolition of the house of lorda if they - were sent there loud laughter, Harcourt said, "It is most impracticable; it must be left to the government to find means to put an end to the intolerable situation." A division on Labouchere's amendment was then taken and the cheering which followed the announcement of the result lasted fully a minute. Some of the mem berg acted in the most frantic manner and the waving of handkerchiefs and hats continued until the deputy speaker left the chair for a short interval. The result of the division on Labouchere's amendment was a surprise not only to the government but to many who had voted in favor of the amendment. Several of the latter avowed this evening that thetrobject in supporting the amendment was merely to give a good divieion against the house of lorda. They had no ideat that there was a prospect of the amendment being carried. The prospect of the resignation Of the cabinet was the general topic in the lobbies of the house of commons this evening. It is expected that the cabi net will meet tomorrow to discuss the matter. TALKING COINAGE. The Bland Kill Discussion Continues In the Senate. Washington, March 13. Proceed ings in the senate today were uninteresting. The discussion of the seigniorage bill waa taken up. Senatora Stewart and Lindsay spoke in favor and Dolph spoke in oppoaition, holding that its passage woald destroy the existing equality between gold and silver. In reply Mr. Seewart delivered a silver speech along the line of his well known theories. Senator Lindsay denied the assertions by Senator Sherman that the bill permitted the issue of paper money without Becuritv. When he took hia seat senators Dolph and Mills jumped up, the latter to ask for an executive session. Mr. Dolph, however, was recognized and as he was primed for a speech and had been waiting since vesterdav for an opening, be declined to yield to a mo tion to go into executive session. Mr. Dolph thought those who were urging the passage of the bill were doing so under false' interpretations. The bill was a reckless proposition to increase the coinage of standard silver dollars or of silver certificates without adequate provision tor redemption or to maintain their equality with gold. The bill was in direct conflict with the declaration of congress made when the purchasing clause of the Sherman law waa re pealed. He said that it waa the policy of the government to maintain the parity of gold and silver. Mr. Dolph alluded to a work which he wanted printed in the record. Harris, of Tennessee, objected to any book going on the record. Dolph said the work was only a newspaper clipping and Harris objected to that. Finally Dolph got his way and just began to read when the senate adjourned. Awarded Highest Honors World's Fair. OR- CREAM mm MOST PERFECT MADE.-- . A pure Grape Cream of Tartar Powder.

The identity of a boiler was a problem which waa before Justice Johnstone's court for solution yesterday. It came up in the suit of R. F. Kirk-land againat G. L. Williacraft for possession of a boiler on the Indian school farm. That boiler has a history. In 1886 a company in charge of the Vulture made a mess of things, got in debt to a station keeper and turned a boiler : over to him to square the account. Later the boiler waa sold by the sheriff to Mr. Kirkland under an execution, but the station keeper during his lifetime and his wife after his death, re- , fused to allow it to be hauled awav. Three years later a flood on the Has- sayampa complicated matters and. floated this boiler and othera around until they were thoroughly mixed. Mr. Williacraft afterward bought a boiler of the widow of the station keeper. She did not know whether it was the one the sheriff had sold or not. There was a theory that that one had washed away and the one that Mr. Williacraft bought was on that had been waahed down to take its place. But whether thia was so or not was a secret which only the spirit of the Hassayampa could disclose. Mr. Williacraft anyhow remodeled the boiler and finds himself in the position of a contestee for its possession. After taking all the circumstantial evidence possible the court adjourned to the boiler to hunt for marka of identification. The problem is still in process of solution. Real .testate.
